On May 8th, North School will have two artists in residence spending a week with us.

Steve Ferraris and James Marshall will return to North
School to showcase African Drumming and Dance.

We have been busy preparing for their arrival making drums and masks. North School was awarded a
grant from the NH State Arts Council thanks to the efforts of Mrs. LaPorte,
Mrs. Sullivan and Mrs. Thompson, our librarian.

This Residency program is
supported in part by a grant from the New Hampshire State Council on the Arts
and the National Endowment for the Arts. This prestigious grant award is made possible by appropriations from the Governor and State Legislature and a National Endowment for the Arts grant to the New Hampshire State Council on the Arts. Thanks to them, this opportunity is possible as we celebrate the Arts in our Schools.
